Model history
The Porsche 996 marked the beginning of a new era in the history of the 911 in 1998: it was the first model in the series with a water-cooled six-cylinder boxer engine. The introduction of water cooling was necessary in order to meet modern performance and emissions standards. The body was also completely redesigned – wider, longer, and more comfortable than its predecessor, the 993. Technically, the 996 featured four-valve technology and optional all-wheel drive, as well as modern equipment options. With over 175,000 units sold, it became the best-selling 911 generation of its time.

Questions and Comments
Technik: Der Porsche 996 ist ein 2+2-Sitzer-Sportwagen der Porsche AG, der von 1997 bis 2006 in Zuffenhausen hergestellt wurde. Das Fahrzeug ist der Nachfolger des Porsche 993 und die fünfte Generation der 911er-Baureihe. Der 996 ist das erste Modell der 911-Baureihe mit einem wassergekühlten Motor und (nach dem 1996 eingeführten Porsche Boxster) das zweite Porsche-Modell mit einem Boxermotor ohne Luftkühlung. Porsche gab 1997 dieses fünfzig Jahre lang verwendete Konzept endgültig auf. Der Porsche 996 wurde von Harm Lagaay gestaltet. Karosserieform und Innenraum unterscheiden sich vom Vorgängermodell erheblich.
